Total Family Care Coalition (TFCC)
Total Family Care Coalition (TFCC) is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit incorporated in 2006. TFCC is a member of the National Federation of Families for Children with Mental Health and designated Lead Contact for Children and Families in the District of Columbia.
TFCC is the leading provider of family advocacy and support to parents of children and youth with serious emotional disturbances in the District of Columbia. We are here to help families and youth grow and thrive, regardless of race, age, background, sexual orientation or income.
We specialize in empowering youth with serious emotional disturbances to advocate for their own care plans. TFCC works closely with families to help them overcome life obstacles. Our staff is made up on persons with “lived experience” and have experienced similar life challenges as those we serve. Our peer support workers are determined to help families, youth and individuals find achievable solutions to support their life journey. TFCC has a dynamic and distinctive homegrown approach, using peer support to connect with youth and parents through our shared experiences.
